Stephan Plecher is regarded as one of the upcoming big talents in Germany, Austria and Switzerland. This album features Belgium jazz veteran Bert Joris on the trumpet and flugelhorn. On this release, the listener gets treated to a playful and uplifting musical journey. The first track Jungfemballet sets the tone. Jungfemballett means maiden's ballet in English and the song is fairy-like. A story begins. Bert Joris's gorgeous trumpet sound is so heart warming, the tunes goes from reflective to really exciting.

2016 release, the long-awaited second album by UK's soul hurricane Hannah Williams. Recorded at Quatermass Studio in London - the HQ of the British cult band The Heliocentrics, - the album was produced by legendary UK drummer and producer Malcolm Catto. The musicianship has ramped up several gears since Hannah's first album; bringing a welcome flare of excellence which punctuates Hannah's heartbreaking vocals and embraces Malcolm's tight, psychedelic production. Mixed totally analogue, and mastered on tape, Late Nights & Heartbreak includes 13 tracks of visceral soul with a touch of psychedelic atmosphere - as evidenced by the first single "Tame in The Water".

The fact that Axel Kuhn called his new trio album Zeitgeist leads us to understand it programmatically. We do not want to be the umpteenth variant of a conventional piano trio, which too often sounds like Brad Mehldau and employs this typical jazz approach. For the 35-year-old bassist and his congenial long-time partners Ull Mock on piano and Marcel Gustke on bass, it is more about rejuvenating jazz with current grooves and catchy melodies from pop and rock.

This much-anticipated recording debut of the new jazz supergroup- David Murray, Geri Allen & Terri Lyne Carrington Power Trio- is dedicated to Ornette Coleman, who passed just days before the recording. The album features (and is named after) Coleman's never before recorded composition, “Perfection.”

Some have to spend another lifetime looking for the ideal fellow musicians. Not an issue for the creative heads behind the trio JUNG//JUNG though: they're twin brothers and they apparently share the same DNA in terms of groove. Alex Jung plays a sixstring guitar, Heiko Jung plays a six-string bass. Two instruments, as different as they are alike. Two brothers, as identical as they are distinctive.

Dolly Parton, Linda Ronstadt, and Emmylou Harris have three careers unparalleled in music history. Together they have sold over 200 million albums worldwide and performed for decades in front of countless fans around the globe. It s no surprise that when their three voices united to release their debut collaboration, the results were remarkable. The threesome released two albums together, Trio (1987) and Trio II (1999), which have combined to sell more than five million copies worldwide and win three Grammy® Awards. Both of these classic albums have been newly remastered for a three-CD collection packed with rare and unreleased music produced by Harris. The bonus disc is loaded with 20 songs, including alternate takes and completely unreleased recordings from the trio spanning both album sessions.

After Henrik Freischlader’s last farewell tour with his band and 2014 live album many were worried that it might be the last we would see of Henrik leading a band for a while. Well, it appears that he is back with Openness after a short respite to recharge the creative batteries. For the new album, he has put together all new members, Alex Grube on bass and drummer Carl-Michael Grabinger…

Elliot Galvin is one of the rising stars of UK jazz. A superbly gifted composer and pianist, whose maverick imagination and magpie-like ability to blend a disparate world of influences into his own unique musical vision has seen him compared to Django Bates, although in truth he sounds like no one except himself. From deconstructing standards to creating his own microtonal melodica, Galvin s music is both playful and deadly serious, drawing on a wide range of influences from Keith Jarrett to Stravinsky, Ligetti, Deerhoof and the Beatles as well as the films of David Lynch, the Dada movement and the literature of James Joyce. A regular collaborator with Laura Jurd, he also plays in a free improv duo with Mark Sanders, but his main artistic vehicle is the Elliot Galvin Trio.
